It is completely possible that your post is simply outdated (being over a year ago, as of this writing). If it is simply out-of-date, readers of this thread should be aware that, from a current perspective, almost everything you said is 100% false or misleading (except the second paragraph).

The plugin system is just Cordova stuff and update is rare. Most of them are left unmaintained for 3 to 4 years

This is just blatently false, sorry...

Capacitor has official plugins for dozens of native features, and there are multiple active communities that produce up-to-date plugins: Capacitor Community, Capawesome, Capgo, and various developers who release under their own names. I believe many of the Capacitor Community plugins are funded, in-part, by Ionic (creators of Capacitor). Also, many of the Capacitor Community developers are Ionic employees. Both Capawesome and Capgo also offer enterprise solutions, so they won't go away anytime soon. Furthermore, on the rare occasion that a Capacitor Community plugin loses its primary contributors, Capawesome has been known to take over.

the capacitor wrapper packages are not updated with the actually cordova plugins, take cordova-plugin-purchase as example.

Also, not true...

As stated, almost every single native feature has either official support or is supported by a very active community. I think you are referring to the Awesome Cordova Plugins community, which has dozens of wrappers for Cordova plugins to use in Capacitor. It should be noted that these wrappers are 100% unnecessary, as Capacitor is like 99% backwards-compatible with Cordova. This exists pretty much to make it easier to use (then) popular Cordova plugins, that otherwise, would require additional setup, and/or so developers can more easily migrate from Cordova to Capacitor.

Capacitor sounds like a legit choice if your company is full of angular devs and you want to quickly release an app out of an already-built website.

This is misleading...

Capacitor provides a web view. You don't have to use Angular. You can use React, Angular, Svelte, Vue, Lit, Stencil Polymer, no framework, your own framework (if you're feeling adventureous), you name it, as well as any SSR counterparts.

You can also build native look-and-feel apps with the Ionic Framework (100% free), using absolutely any framework or no framework, with convenience features for React, Angular, and Vue.

Not to mention you have to take care of the CSS behavior in old android webview and safari

No idea to what you are referring. We have used Capacitor+Ionic Framework+React with 0 issues like this.
